Windows 11's Share UI is a built-in feature that lets you quickly share content from apps or files.
When you use the Share button, a box appears with options to share via email, nearby devices, or installed apps like X. The share option in Windows 11 is designed to make sharing files, links, or text easier and more streamlined.
However, not all apps have a Share button, and Microsoft wants to change that. As part of its efforts to help you share more content, Microsoft recently added the Share button to Windows 11 search results.

The same feature now comes to the Start menu and taskbar.
According to Microsoft insider Phantom, you'll be able to right-click on apps in the Start menu to share files with friends or family. Microsoft is also testing a "Share" button on the taskbar.
This means you'll soon be able to right-click items pinned to the taskbar and click "Share" to quickly share files you've accessed from the Windows 11 taskbar.
It's a neat change, but Microsoft is still testing it in preview builds, so we don't know when it will start rolling out to everyone.
